GET A JOB. GET PAID. GET QUALIFIED.

At City of Glasgow College, we offer a range of Modern Apprenticeship programmes from Hairdressing and Barbering to ICT and Creative and Digital Media (see full list below).

Modern Apprenticeships are funded through Skills Development Scotland and are aimed at anyone over the age of 16, in employment and who wish to earn a wage while they learn. From day one you will have a real job, with real pay, whilst gaining skills, hands-on experience and working towards an industry recognised qualification.

Here are just a few of the benefits:

Kick start your career in your chosen industry sector.

Ease the transition from education to work.

Real career prospects.

Increase your confidence and skills.

MAs can be delivered in a variety of different ways, however, at City of Glasgow College most will contain an element of on and off-the-job training and assessment. The qualification you will work towards is a Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ) at Level 2 or 3 and will relate directly to the job or industry sector you are working in - some frameworks also include enhancements such as HNC/HND. In addition, you will achieve core skills in Communication, Numeracy, Information Technology, Problem Solving and Working with Others
